Safe Zone and Unsecured Wi Fi

Avast Free Antivirus / Premium Security
1

Sometimes, when away from home, it is necessary to use an unsecured WIFI. It would seem that the Safe Mode would be a good tool for browsing or doing any necessary business.

Is there a downside to using the Safe Zone under those circumstances?
Thanks,
Jerry

Hi JerryM:

I don’t think so.
I use SafeZone regularly while connected to Wireless networks ‘secured or unsecured’ (not much difference for professional hackers)for all on-line business.
As with all security applications, there may be downside issues in relation to speed or convenience(storing passwords) but nothing that would cause me to stop using safezone. :wink: :slight_smile:

Hi schmidthouse,

Thanks for the reply. I haven’t noticed any decrease in speed, and like the added security. I am not sure how hackers get into an account, but Safe Zone certainly decreases the chance. Maybe to zero. :slight_smile:

Thanks again.
Regards,
Jerry
